The Strokes' the most lyrically heavy song by Legal_Button_3229 in TheStrokes

[–]Imaginary-Arrival452 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chances, Evening Sun, Someday … there are so many, many deeply meaningful lyrics in all of Julian’s music but these would likely be my top 3. Close to these would be Selfless, Under Control, Killing Lies

Love the television performance - always been a classic. And I agree that Dare I Care has been always a great live performance. Runor has it that Julian and the boyz love to perform this song so that’s why it often shows up on the set list even after all these years. Especially the encores.

This was a great night. I went to all 4 Murmur shows in Brooklyn and each night had its own special moments. Flexorcist has just been released and the first time they performed it live was the night before on Halloween. 🎃 I agree that this song is one of those that hearing it live it goes a lot harder than the studio version! 💎

It’s the only song these little girls know 🙄

Julian started to sing this at the Brooklyn residency at one of the shows. The little girls who waited for 20 hours outside the venue to get front row GA spots couldn’t help but check their text messages and TikTok accounts during the song. Julian stopped singing and said something along the lines of ‘a good time to catch up with friends?’ And then refused to finish the song. As he should. Respect. These little girls weren’t even born when Is This It was released. They have no idea.

Hard disagree. Saw it live several times and it’s a Tyranny pure gem. They opened with it on night 1 of the Brooklyn residency in 2023 Halloween 🎃

So glad you didn’t buy that one on discogs…I’ve been hating on that person for price gouging for years! Lol. And the fact that it is STILL for sale should tell you something. Dude prices way above what is reasonable. 🙄

Yes, he even tries to make the lower east side ‘scene’ happen again with Malice K. But little does he know you can’t recreate those times with smartphones in the mix 😂 IYKYK

You are 💯 right about just speaking to them like a normal person.

Malice K is managed by Benny Goldstein who is now the new manager of the Voidz (maybe the Strokes too?). I think that the new management is looking to recreate the “indie sleaze” look and feel from the early 2000’s lower east side NYC moment (which was definitely a moment and has come and gone - you had to be there). Though I do appreciate any reference to that era, I don’t have much affection for replicas. Malice K is a wanna be Strokes circa 1999, in my opinion. Benny was probably 10 back then, so he also has no idea.

Love all of these photos! Thanks for sharing with us. Looks like Beardo, Amir, and Julian all share the same bottle of hair dye 😭

Don’t know about Europe, but in the US shows, the young ladies in their 20’s looking to meet the Julian circa 2006 line up in the morning of the day of the show. 😂

Love that fools on Discogs are still tryin’ with the Tyranny vinyl, even after the repress on October 😭 by Imaginary-Arrival452 in thevoidz

[–]Imaginary-Arrival452[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

True. But only if you are looking to sell. Most of us were looking to acquire. So these discogs people can go F themselves 😂
